McConville, Rutgers University There was at a certain point, certainly within the last eight or ten years, that I decided to use only a certain very small vocabulary of chords. And I used the chords that I had discovered in the course of searching through the whole system­ the two 4-note chords that have all the intervals and the 6-note chord that contains all the 3-note chords. And then I went back to previous work which I used in my Double Concerto combining 4-note chords, either no. 18 or no. 23, and so I made many 8 note chords out of those. It's something I was aware of when I first wrote the Double Concerto. I simply reverted to what I had been doing long ago. I discovered no. 18 entirely by chance when I was writing my First String Quartet. And then when I came to write the Double Concerto I discovered that there was also no. 23 , but I never made a list until much later. - Elliott Carter, from Harmony Book (New York: Carl Fischer, LLC), 2002. The above quote, taken from John Link's 1999 interview with Elliott Carter, which constitutes part of the prefatory material to the composer's Harmony Book, speaks volumes about the maturation process of Carter's highly individual harmonic language. Moreover, the recent works Carter mentions represent a pitch language which has undergone a forty year gestation period towards ultimate codification. In this paper, a closer look into a recent Carter composition will reveal a harmonic language that distills the composer's immense vocabulary of pitch materials, as evident in his Harmony Book, to the crucial harmonic elements which may represent the composer's total compositional output. We will first identify how Carter's harmonic agenda has evolved, not only through his "middle period," as his chords (pitch collections) expanded in size, but with the reduced chords of his recent music as well. Furthermore, we will see how his recent music reveals pitch collections bound by the adhesive qualities of the Harmony Book. We will also see specific examples of how the harmonic "arsenal" of the Harmony Book may contribute, in a dialectical way, to his current compositional process. Ultimately, this paper seeks to reveal that Carter's self-imposed reduction of harmonic materials has created recent compositions that possess an efficient and Harmony Book inspired musical syntax, capable of recalling his music of the past, yet existing in a freshly refined state. .CONCERT3 Saturday, November 11, 2006 1:30 p.m. Wellin Hall Music of the Solstice Brian Bevelander Sar-Shalom Strong, piano The Gardens of Anna Maria Luisa de' Medici Hilary Tann l."Just to see something beautiful" 2."Fools hurry, clever ones wait, wise ones walk in the garden," Allegro vivo 3."Villa La Quiete," Andante, poco mesto Linda Greene, flute George Macero, violoncello Sar-Shalom Strong, piano Black Echo Vera Ivanova Sar-Shalom Strong, piano A Turk in Seattle Munir Beken Syracuse Society for New Music: Linda Greene, flute John Friedrichs, clarinet Vladimir Pritsker, violin George Macero, violoncello Heather Buchman, conductor Abstractions Nikolas Jeleniauskas I.

They attempt to capture subtle visual aspects of natural phenomena, including the ephemeral textures of the play of sunlight and cloud on the stream's frozen surface and the uneven rhythms of interactions among water, air, and ice. The sound was derived from the original captured water noises, and the piano part was composed from the loudest frequency bursts in the water track. Some sound was temporally displaced to invite the perception of relationships with the video. Ann Johnston Miller has worked as a professional studio ceramist for thirty years, making clay sculpture and functional work as well as welded steel sculpture and installation. She has shown in the New York City and the central New York state areas as well as in the southeastern United States. In 2000 she began working with video. The videos have been shown at the Ladyfest East film festival in New York City and Rooftop Films in Brooklyn, New York. Allen Fogelsanger is the Director of Music for the Cornell University Dance Program. Before working at Cornell he served as music director for the Central Pennsylvania Dance Workshop I Pennsylvania Dance Theater in State College, Pennsylvania. He received his BS from the Pennsylvania State University and his PhD from Cornell University, both in mathematics, and has studied music composition with Burt Fenner, Steven Stucky, and Karel Husa, and dance composition with David Gordon. He has composed music for dances choreographed by Kathleya Afanador, LaRue Allen, Chris Black, Jumay Chu, June Finch, Peggy Lawler, Joyce Morgenroth, Jim Self, and Byron Suber. Bubbles is his first venture into composing sound for video. His work has been presented around the United States, including at national conferences of the Society for Electro-Acoustic Music in the United States (SEAMUS) and the Society of Composers, Inc. (SCI). Harmonic Fantasy Hubert Howe Harmonic Fantasy is based upon very rich sounds, all consisting of 32 harmonic partials, which extend five octaves above the fundamental (except on high tones, where the partials exceed the limits of human hearing). The harmonics are introduced one at a time in an irregular series that emphasizes the harmony of the context in which the tone appears at the beginning of the series, followed by a transposition of the series, and finally by the remaining partials. Following the introduction of the individual partials, the tones undergo either vibrato or glissando in precisely controlled ways. Vibrato is applied to the partials in an individual, out-of-sync fashion at a subsonic speed that is seven octaves below the fundamental (thus, middle C would be about 2 Hz).

Jaime Shepard’s design was the winning artwork as Denato, Kala Dunning, and Professor Robert Clarke. Graphic design student’s creation selected to represent Irish festival Graphic design student Jaime Shepard was feeling pretty lucky last week when her design was selected from among 31 pieces to be the “theme graphic” for the 2007 Great American Irish Festival. Robert Clarke, Professor in MVCC’s Art Department, was approached by the Great American Irish Festival (GAIF) committee several weeks ago seeking help in creating a “theme graphic” that would be used on posters promoting the event along with appearing on the GAIF website, t-shirts, signage and banners displayed throughout the Mohawk Valley. Mr. Clarke challenged his Professional Practice in Graphic Design students to create a design that is dis- tinctive, creative, attention grabbing while having a feel for the event. That’s what Ms. Shepard achieved with her winning design. “I am very excited and pleased to have my design picked,” said Ms. Shepard, who is returning student. She graduated from Rome Free Acad- emy in 1998 and now resides in Barneveld.

  • The Proliferation of String Quartets in Canada 1991-2014
    The Proliferation of String Quartets in Canada 1991-2014 by Min-Jeong Koh A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts Faculty of Music University of Toronto © Copyright by Min-Jeong Koh 2014 The Proliferation of String Quartets in Canada 1991-2014 Min-Jeong Koh Doctor of Musical Arts Faculty of Music University of Toronto 2014 Abstract This paper examines the proliferation of string quartets in Canada between 1991 and 2014. The year 1991 is a pivotal one: it was the end of a Golden Age of string quartet performance in Canada with the conclusion of the activities of the Orford, Vághy, and Purcell Quartets. It marked, also, the beginning of a New Golden Age of string quartet performance in Canada. Similar to their predecessors, the quartets of this new era have different levels of international success, but one could call it a New Golden Age from the sheer number of professional ensembles active in Canada from 1991 onward. The thesis begins with biographies of leading ensembles of this period: the Alcan, Arthur Leblanc, Claudel-Canimex, St. Lawrence, Lafayette, Penderecki, Molinari, Bozzini, Borealis, Tokai, Silverbirch, Cecilia, Afiara, and the New Orford Quartets. The fourth chapter researches the opportunities available to string quartets in Canada, including the Banff International String Quartet Competition. To supplement the biographies and to gain additional insight on the available resources, eight quartet players participated in interviews. Findings emphasize the need to create more support for Canadian musicians, including both professional ensembles and also young aspiring quartet ensembles, to stay in Canada.
